About our team
Welcome to Sister District South Bay LA. We represent volunteers from Long Beach to Palos Verdes to Torrance and the Beach Cities and everywhere in between.
Our local team is lead by a group of volunteer District Captains (Gary and Roxi), who organize specific local events and manage our day-to-day activities. Right now, we’re actively looking for folks to help with our 2020 strategy ~ calling voters, raising small dollars, and helping with membership as we grow! If you think that might be you, please attend our Monthly meetings on the 3rd Saturday of every month-- virtually for now.
We are supporting three amazing candidates this cycle. Our first candidate is Ann Johnson, running to represent Texas' 134th House District in Austin. We are supporting two candidates looking to flip the Minnesota State Senate Blue in 2020. First, from State Senate District 34 is Bonnie Westlin and from State Senate District 26 is Aleta Borrud.
Upcoming Events
We have several upcoming events:
Every Wednesday from 4-6pm we will be hosting a virtual phonebank, calling voters in TX and MN on behalf of our two candidates.

Our July Monthly Meeting (virtual) will be held on July 18 via Zoom from 1:30pm-3:30pm. This month we will meet with our third candidate, Aleta Borrud, running to flip Minnesota State Senate District 26 blue and win a Minnesota trifecta!

Throughout the summer we will be hosting a series of virtual trainings on textbanking to help further your activism. Each session we will focus on the basics of textbanking for the first half hour then dive in and learn about a different textbanking group and get you up and running with them. Thus far, we have covered texting with Open Progress Text Troop and Indivisitext. Upcoming sessions include:
July 11 -- Texting with Resistance Labs. RSVP link (https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZAsd-2spjktHt1zzzEA-g_8tYBAV8fCjRHM?fbclid=IwAR21jnZlWyXVFz1ZZ42bAYmbF5Ku9Tlpg2_JZyorssz1Gt3tptBdhq9YGdc)
